Hi all,
Can anyone recommend an application firewall with gui.
Mandatory feature, query user on first occurrence, and built-in configurations for known software.
Under windows the Symantec Firewall has built in rules for known applications. In addition, I have it configured that anything new that attempts to access the internet has to be approved first. This way I caught some trojans on my computer.
This, for me, is a serious hurdle to switching to Linux.
My new PC will be arriving next week, and I would really like to start using Linux on my home PCs regularly.

Can anyone recommend such a firewall?

thanks
Gaby
